We booked Joe at our assisted living facility for our Oktoberfest on 10/03/2023! During the performance our residents were engaged, and we had an even bigger turn out than expected. I believe that this is due to Joe's skills and professionalism! We'd be happy to have Joe back any day of the week!

Booking Info
What to Expect
My solo performances are audience-engaging and cater to the audience in both intimate and large settings. They can be of a close-up or large venue format and can be concert in nature or informal entertainment. They usually include both instrumental and vocal selections and direct contact with the audience. I also perform for events requiring both background music and direct audience engaging entertainment.
I perform a variety of music, both instrumental with some vocals, and cover many genres of music. In addition to a wide and varied repertoire, my passion is to perform unique signature and unusual novelty arrangements, sometimes covering on a single instrument the music of an entire band or group. In addition to the variety of traditional and romantic Euro-ethnic music, my audiences will be surprised by the robust and diverse sounds they see and hear coming from me and my instrument live....there is nothing prerecorded or canned in my delivery.
